OU vs #12 KSU 8pm CST on ESPNU

[Seymore Cox]

Great win.

 

[BoulderSooner]

The announcers were speculating OU could still get in the field of 68.
With 5 games left and only a clear shot at maybe winning 2 how is that possible?
2 wins puts OU at 15-16 entering the Big 8 tourney. OU is dead in the water and doesn't even have a path to the NIT unless it gets to the Big 12 final.

they were speculating .. that 6 conf wins could get OU in ..

Excellent win....the team played smart and made shots. It's amazing when you make shots how easy the game looks, lol.

Lol yeah that was funny. If they expand the field to 128 in the next three weeks, we have a chance. Otherwise, it was just meaningless chatter.

Agreed! Any win against a ranked opponent is a good win, but it's tough to get excited over it. Yay, .500! lol

 

[Eielson]

How are we favored?!?! Send me a bookie asap!!!!!

Hope you heeded my warning and didn't find a bookie!

Untrue. win 4 of 5 and youll be in. 7 wins in this conference gets you in.

3 of 5 might get you in also ... that would be right on the bubble with 6 q1 wins

I agree. 1 at a time.

Yeah, technically, we still have a chance because every game left is a potential quad 1 win, I think. So, plenty of opportunities to play our way in. I just don’t believe in this team at all and nobody can honestly say we have a shot at this point.

While it’s theoretically true that 4 more wins would get us in, it’s also true that if I find a billion dollars on the sidewalk, I’ll be a billionaire. If you think that analogy is silly, I agree. There is a much better chance that I’ll find a billion dollars than there is that we will win four more games.

Get what youre saying but run a parlay for 4 wins and your odds will be far less than $1billon to 1.

That is silly.

Is it likely? extremely not.
Is it as impossible as finding a billion dollars? not even close

We've shown that if we are hitting shots we can beat just about anyone. We've also shown we can lose to anyone.

Yep. 3 of 5 gets us to 16-15 headed into the Big 12 tournament. As long as all of those wins remain Quad 1, that puts us on the bubble. One or two wins in Kansas City, and who knows?

One win at a time, though. This team can beat a good team by 30 and lose to a bad team by 30.

We beat one really good team on a day that team no-showed. That game was a fluke. The past 6 weeks of results make that pretty clear. It's silly to even discuss the possibility of us winning 3 of 5. We have one road win all season, and it came against Tech when they were a huge mess.

I love bubble talk as much as anyone when a team is actually in sight of the bubble. We are so far away that you don't even see us included in the bubble watch columns.

I'll allow it. I like to dream ha. That would likely make for the craziest season in ou hoops history. That said, it's not gonna happen..

it is now 2 really good teams that OU has beat

ok

The margin of victory against bama was a fluke.

Us winning was not. We have shown all season we can hang with the top teams in the country. We have also shown we can get beat by bad teams.

With what we have shown against top teams, it is not unreasonable to contemplate if we could win 3-4 more games this year.

No one is saying it is likely

I will take this bet with you.
